Smaller
I am his shadow,
following behind him
I am a fish, and he is a shark
bigger, stronger than me
I am the puppet and he is the puppet master
controlling every thing I do
I feel smaller than him
every day he makes me
smaller
and smaller
and smaller
I miss the days
when I didn’t feel alone
“I love Jalil”
And I love Nana too
And I wish they could be here with me
So that I am no longer alone
In this cold, unappealing house.
I like the way you compared your self you a fish and him as a shark. Good job
ReplyDeleteI like how your emotions are showed through the poem. The comparisons you made really show them.
ReplyDeleteI love your comparisons and the way you arranged the poem, especially when you made the word "smaller" fade each line, which really made it more exciting. Great job!
